We discuss two cases that can be connected to the dynamics of interacting populations: (I.) density waves for the case or negligible random fluctuations of the populations densities, and (II.) probability distributions connected to the…
In this paper we study gradient estimates for the positive solutions of the porous medium equation: $$u_t=\Delta u^m$$ where $m>1$, which is a nonlinear version of the heat equation. We derive local gradient estimates of the Li-Yau type for…
We consider a class of variational problems for densities that repel each other at distance. Typical examples are given by the Dirichlet functional and the Rayleigh functional \[ D(\mathbf{u}) = \sum_{i=1}^k \int_{\Omega} |\nabla u_i|^2…
We are concerned with viscous profiles (travelling waves and steady solutions) for mixed hyperbolic-parabolic systems in one space variable. For a class of systems including the compressible Navier Stokes equation, these profiles satisfy a…

We consider equations of the form $ u_t = \nabla \cdot ( \gamma(u) \nabla \mathrm{N}(u))$, where $\mathrm{N}$ is the Newtonian potential (inverse of the Laplacian) posed in the whole space $\mathbb R^d$, and $\gamma(u)$ is the mobility. For…
In this paper, we are going to show the long time existence of the smooth solution for the porous medium equations in a smooth bounded domain: {equation} {cases} u_t=\La u^m\quad\text{in $\Omega\times [0,\infty)$} u(x,0)=u_0>0\quad\text{in…
We study the behaviour of the solution $u_\varepsilon$ to the Navier-Stokes equations with vanishing viscosity and a non-slip condition in a randomly perforated domain. We consider the space $\mathbb{R}^3$ where we remove $N$ holes that are…
We study the existence of weak solutions to the two-phase model of crowd motion. The model encompasses the flow in the uncongested regime (compressible) and the congested one (incompressible) with the free boundary separating the two…
This paper studies the mechanisms of dispersion in the laminar flow through the pore space of a $3$-dimensional porous medium. We focus on pre-asymptotic transport prior to the asymptotic hydrodynamic dispersion regime, in which solute…
A model for the evolution of a large population interacting system is considered in which a marked Poisson processes influences their evolution, together with a Brownian motion. Mean field McKean-Vlasov limits of such system are formulated…
We consider the Fast Diffusion Equation $u_t=\Delta u^m$ posed in a bounded smooth domain $\Omega\subset \RR^d$ with homogeneous Dirichlet conditions; the exponent range is $m_s=(d-2)_+/(d+2)<m<1$. It is known that bounded positive…
This paper quantifies the speed of convergence and higher- order asymptotics of fast diffusion dynamics on R^n to the Barenblatt (self similar) solution. Degeneracies in the parabolicity of this equation are cured by re-expressing the…
The Liouville type theorem on the parabolic Monge--Amp\`ere equation $-u_t\det D^2u=1$ states that any entire parabolically convex classical solution must be of form $-t+|x|^2/2$ up to a re-scaling and transformation, under additional…
We study the solutions $u=u(x,t)$ to the Cauchy problem on $\mathbb Z^d\times(0,\infty)$ for the parabolic equation $\partial_t u=\Delta u+\xi u$ with initial data $u(x,0)=1_{\{0\}}(x)$. Here $\Delta$ is the discrete Laplacian on $\mathbb…

We study the velocity gradients of the fundamental Eulerian equation, $\partial_t u +u\cdot \nabla u=F$, which shows up in different contexts dictated by the different modeling of $F$'s. To this end we utilize a basic description for the…
